^  O  otKer  occupation  is  so  vitally  important  to  tKe  Kuman 

race,  nor  requires  such  a  wide  ran^e  of  practical  and 
technical  knowledge,  as  farming.  It  has  to  do  with  our 
very  existence  — the  production  of  food  and  conservation 

^  of  the  soil. 

Farmers  have  been  regarded  with  ^ood-natured  tolerance  by 
city  dwellers  as  being,  merely  an  incident  in  the  national  life,  but 
the  increasing  cost  of  the  actual  necessities  is  attracting  attention 
to  the  fact  that  our  fields  must  be  tilled,  our  cows  must  be  milked 
and  many  other  details  relating  to  food  production  accomplished 
every  day,  whereby  the  world's  population  may  be  fed. 
Generations  of  farmers  have  patiently  worked  from  dawn  until 


SHearts  delight  Dxirm .  Qhazy.Ns^york. 


late  at  ni^t  producing  food  for  Kumanity,  and  they  are  obliged  by  precedent  and 
force  of  circumstance  to  dispose  of  tKeir  products  for  mucK  lower  prices  tKan 
conditions  warrant;  therefore  in  attempting  to  obtain  a  comfortable  livelihood  the 
farmers  have  been  constrained  to  steadily  impoverish  the  soil. 

These  circumstances  cause  enterprising  country  boys  to  appreciate  early  in  life 
that  as  farmers  they  are  not  likely  to  receive  suitable  compensation  for  their  time  and 
effort,  consequently  these  boys  leave  the  farms  and  pass  on  to  some  one  else  the  duty 
of  furnishing  pure  and  wholesome  food  for  the  human  race.  In  view^  of  these  con- 
ditions, the  one  industry  in  which  every  individual  in  the  civilized  world  is  vitally 
interested,  may  usually  be  found  under  the  manag,ement  of  people  who  have  not 
received  a  thoroug,h  business  training. 

To  illustrate  the  foregoing,  facts,  it  is  necessary  only  to  invite  attention  to 
customary  methods  of  producing  and  distributing  milk.  This  enterprise  is  sadly 
neglected — city  people  vigorously  protest  against  paying  even  a  fair  price  for  this 
essential  commodity,  thus  preventing  dairy  farmers  from  obtaining  sufficient  funds 
wherewith  to  build  and  maintain  sanitary  stables  and  secure  correct  conditions  in  the 
management  of  dairy  herds.  The  prevailing  price  of  milk  is  decidedly  unjust  and 
should  be  greatly  increased;  otherwise  impure  milk  will  continue  to  destroy 
multitudes  of  children  annually.  It  is  remarkable  that  parents  continue  to  imperil 
the  lives  of  their  own  offspring  by  refusing,  to  ^ve  the  farmers  reasonable  recom- 
pense in  order  that  they  may  be  enabled  to  produce  pure  milk. 

The  people  who  live  in  cities  do  not  appreciate  how  serious  is  the  crisis  confront- 
ing them.  They  evidently  devote  no  thought  to  the  important  fact  that  the  strength 
of  the  soil,  even  in  rich  river  bottom  lands,  is  bein^  rapidly  exhausted,  and  that 
greater  and  still  greater  efforts  are  necessary  on  the  part  of  farmers  whereby  suffi- 
cient food  may  be  yielded  for  the  world's  inhabitants.  However,  the  tillers  of  the 
soil  are  beginning  to  realize  that  they  mi^ht  continue  indefinitely  devoting  their  time, 
labor  and  the  fertility  of  their  farms  to  the  public  ^thout  deriving  sufficient  remun- 
eration to  enable  them  to  maintain  the  producing  power  of  their  land,  consequently 
conditions  are  chan^in^,  resulting  in  much  agitation  and  ill-advised  lawmaking.

If  our  form  of  government  is  to  endure  and  each  individual  composing  our 
citizenship  is  to  have  a  reasonable  opportunity  for  "life,  liberty  and  the  pursuit  of 
happiness",  this  nation  must  cease  creating  unwise  laws,  discontinue  all  unfair  or  class 

legislation  and  devote  earnest  attention  to  the  most  necessary  of  all   avocations 

intelli|,ent  cultivation  of  the  soil. 

Successful  modem  farming  requires  education,  energy,  a  keen  and  orderly 
intellect,  executive  ability,  ambition,  foresight,  wide  experience  and  a  thorou^ 
knowledge  of  farm  machinery;  also  the  application — whenever  possible — of  steam 
and  electric  power.

Origin  and  Development 


THE  noble  breed  of  animals,  classified  as  horses,  is  the 
result  of  a  remarkable  process  of  development  extend- 
ing, back  through  the  ag,es  to  the  first  definitely  accepted 
ancestor  preserved  in  the  Eocene  formation  of  rocks.  The 
fossilized  bones  of  horses  have  also  been  found  in  caves 
formerly  occupied  by  men  of  the  Stone  and  Bronze  a^es. 
Prjevalsky,  a  Russian  traveler,  is  said  to  have  discovered 
the  immediate  ancestors  of  modem  horses.  He  found 
a  wild  species  of  the  breed,  which  averaged  about 
twelve  hands  in  hei^t,  in  Mongolia  south  of  the  Altai 
Mountains. 

The  Arabian  is  probably  the  oldest  type  of  im- 
proved horse  and  is  said  to  have  been  developed  on 
the  plains  of  Northern  Africa.  When  the  warriors  of 
Islam  invaded  France  in  732  A.  D.  and  were  defeated 
at  Tours  (about  sixty  miles  south  of  the  district  of  Le 
Perche)  many  of  their  Arabian  charters  were  included 
in  the  spoils  of  victory.  The  horses  ridden  by  these 
Saracens  were  chiefly  stallions  of  the  Turk,  Arab  and 
Barb  types;  therefore,  the  French  people  of  that  period 
were  able  to  improve  their  native  horses  by  crossing 
them  with  these  symmetrical,  clean-limbed,  courageous, 
Oriental  saddle  horses,  and  the  farmers  of  Le  Perche 
made  inteUig,ent  use  of  these  splendid  stallions.  Other  importations  of  Oriental 
horses  were  made  in  the  11th,  12th  and  13th  centuries  in  connection  with 
the  Crusades  to  the  Holy  Land.  During  the  16th,  17th  and  18th  centuries 
Frenchmen  of  title  manifested  ^eat  interest  in  the  work  of  improving  their  horses 
and  they  imported  for  that  purpose  many  fine  Arabian  stallions. 


Faithful  Friends 


The  blending  of  these  Oriental  charters  with  the  native  horses  of  France 
and  the  improvement  brougjit  about  by  careful  selection  during  ten  centuries  have 
caused  the  Percheron  horse  of  the  present  time  to  become  noted  for  strength,  endur- 
ance, style  and  conformation. 


•heart's 'Delight  Gh.rm,  6hazy.MeiMyi,rk. 


The  first  real  start  of  the  breed  in  the  United  States  was  due  to  the  importation 
of  the  stallion  "Louis  Napoleon",  in  1851.  During  the  past  thirty  years  the 
Percheron  breed  has  rapidly  acquired  popularity  in  America. 

The  Percheron  breeding  mares  of  Heart's  Delist  Farm  were  most  carefully 
selected — none  but  prize  winners  of  the  hi^est  quality  and  most  perfect  conformation 
were  acceptable;  consequently  our  foundation  stock  represents  the  conscientious  work 
and  intelligent  care  of  fenerations  of  the  foremost  farmers  of  France. 

Our  Percheron  breeding  stallion  "Ildefonse",  imported  from  France  in  1911,  is 
recognized  as  one  of  the  grandest  stallions  ever  brou^t  to  America.  In  addition  to 
many  First,  Champion  and  Special  prizes  which  he  won  at  the  various  state  fairs, 
mentioned  in  detail  on  pa^e  ten,  it  is  worthy  of  note  that  at  the  International  Live 
Stock  Exposition  at  Chicago  in  1913  he  established  a  remarkable  record  by  winning 
First,  Senior  Champion,  Grand  Champion,  Senior  Champion  Reserve,  and  was  also 
First  as  an  a^ed  stallion. 

His  size,  conformation  and  disposition  are  perfect:  his  foals  possess  every  desirable 
quality  as  to  style,  bone,  stamina  and  resemblance  to  their  sire.  All  the  fire,  vi^r  and 
^race  handed  down  to  "  Ildefonse"  throu^  many  fenerations  of  splendid  ancestors  are 
reproduced  in  his  superb  ofisprin^,  which  as  yearling  average  1275  pounds  inwei^t.

Origin  and  Development 


TN  his  relation  to  mankind,  no  otKer  animal  deserves  such  an  important  place  in 
-L  the  g,rand  plan  of  nature  as  the  horse.  His  intelligence,  strength,  endurance,  use- 
fulness and  beauty  estabHsh  his  supremacy  teyond  question.  In  achieving  the  perfect 
qualities  for  which  the  Belgian  breed  of  horses  is  renowned,  the  farmers  of  Belgium 
have  accomplished  a  marvelous  result. 

The  work  of  estabHshing,  the  characteristics  of  the  Belgian  horse  began  under  the 
patronage  of  Charlemagne,  in  the  year  770  A.D.  This  great  prince  reahzed  that  in 
order  to  checkmate  the  superbly  mounted  Moslem  warriors,  who  were  ravaging 
Europe,  it  was  necessary  to  produce  chargers  having  strength  and  endurance  equal  to 
the  task  of  carrying  the  northern  cavalier  with  his  heavy  coat  of  mail,  his  battle  axe 
and  weighty  lance,  his  sword  and  mace.  To  meet  these  conditions  the  massive 
black  horses  of  Northern  Europe  were  crossed  with  the  high-spirited,  symmetrical, 
nimble-footed,  white  and  bay  Arabian  horses.  Thus  by  an  intelligent  system  of 
mter-breedmg  the  grandest  and  most  powerful  war  horses  ever  known  became  a 
recognized  fact.  These  mighty  chargers  bore  the  Knights  of  the  Red  Cross,  during 
the  Crusades,  to  the  greatest  cavalry  victory  ever  recorded. 


heart's  Tielight  Dnrm.  &hazy.Newyork. 


TKe  descendants  of  these  superb  horses  have  been  honestly  and  carefully  bred 
for  industrial  purposes  ever  since  the  rei^n  of  Queen  Elizabeth,  while  prior  to  that 
time  they  were  produced  for  military  uses  only ;  hence  the  line  of  descent  of 
Belgian  horses  extends  over  a  period  of  eleven  centuries.  These  circumstances  have 
resulted  in  a  decree  of  excellence  in  the  breed  which  seems  almost  incredible. 

The  Belg,ian  breeding  mares  of  Heart's  Delist  Farm  are  said  to  be  the  finest 
ever  broug,ht  to  America.  Each  one  is  a  prize  winner,  and  several  are  champions 
and  g,rand  champions.  All  of  the  wonderful  quality,  strength  and  stamina  of  the 
breed  is  represented  by  these  g,rand  animals. 

Our  Belg,ian  breeding,  stallion,  "Richelieu",  is  absolutely  faultless.  His  color  is 
dark  chestnut,  his  intelligence,  conformation,  size,  bone,  disposition  and  style  antici- 
pate every  ideal.  His  foals  are  worthy  descendants  of  this  wonderful  sire  and 
accurately  reflect  his  tremendous  prepotency.  As  yearlin|,s  they  average  about  1350 
pounds  in  weig,ht.  Their  trueness  to  type,  g,race  of  action  and  rapid  development 
leave  nothing  more  to  be  desired;  therefore  these  colts  establish  the  fame  of  "Richelieu" 
as  the  g,reatest  stallion  of  his  breed  in  America. 

"  Richelieu"  has  never  been  defeated  in  the  show  ring,  and  has  repeatedly  won 
as  Champion  and  Grand  Champion  at  Madison  Square  Garden,  New  York,  the 
Chicago  International  Exposition,  and  at  all  the  ^reat  State  Fairs.  Every  person,  who 
is  privileged  to  see  this  noble  horse,  instantly  realizes  and  appreciates  his  matchless 
perfection.

WHEN  tKe  Romans  first  landed  in  Britain  in  the  year  55  A.  D.,  they  found — as 
recorded  by  Jidius  Caesar — ^^eat  numbers  of  cattle  known  as  Celtic  Shorthorns. 
During  the  400  years  of  Roman  occupation  of  the  island,  it  appears  evident  that  other 
and  larger  species  of  cattle  were  brou^t  to  Britain  and  crossed  with  the  Celtic  breed. 
From  this  ancestry  the  lar^e  wild  white  cattle  of  En^and  doubtless  ori^nated. 
Early  En^ish  history  describes  herds  of  these  cattle  as  bein^  kept  in  four  parks  in 
the  County  of  Durham.  One  of  these  herds  of  unknown  antiquity  was  preserved  in 
a  park  owned  by  the  Bishop  of  Durham.  Evidence  of  the  existence  of  these  wild 
white  cattle  is  found  in  a  ^rant  of  land  by  Charles  I,  dated  March,  1626,  wherein 
this  breed  is  mentioned.  It  is  also  related  that  "the  House  of  Ne\'ill  has  borne  as  its 
crest  for  at  least  650  years  Britain's  wild  white  bull ".  These  and  other  closely 
related  circumstances  clearly  indicate  the  line  of  descent  of  the  breed  until — ^in  the  year 
1730 — we  reach  the  dawn  of  systematic  improvement  in  Shorthorns. 


Page  Twemtifaewn 


SfCearts  X>elight  Dxirm.  Qhazy.Nev^y^rk. 


Georg,e  and  MattKew  CuUey  of  Denton,  England,  had  a  Kerd  of  SKorthoms  in 
1767,  wKicK  Robert  Colling  stated  "were  the  best  lot  of  cattle  he  had  ever  seen".  John 
Maynard  of  Darling,ton  also  had  a  superior  herd  of  these  animals.  Other  noted  breeders 
of  that  early  period  were  Marmaduke  Wetherell  of  Dalton-on-Tees,  Mr.  Harrison 
of  Barmpton,  Mr.  Stephenson  of  Ketton,  John  and  Thomas  Bates,  and  Michael 
Jackson. 

Robert  Bakewell  of  Dishley,  En^and,  is  recognized  as  the  greatest  breeder  of 
fine  cattle  of  his  time.  His  example  and  original  system  were  adopted,  in  1783,  by 
Charles  Colling,  of  Ketton  and  by  Robert  Colling  of  Barmpton,  En^and,  who^by 
means  of  a  thorough  application  of  Bakewell's  methods — made  their  names  famous  as 
breeders  of  Shorthorns. 

Other  men  took  up  this  g,reat  work  and,  while  space  prevents  extended  mention, 
it  is  a  pleasure  to  contemplate  the  results  attained  by  Amos  and  Anthony  Cruikshank, 
William  Duthie,  W.  S.  Marr,  J.  Deane  Willis,  Thomas  Booth  and  the  Earl  of  Dun- 
more.  The  work  of  these  intelligent  men  has  been  of  priceless  value  to  America,  as 
a  well-established  foundation  herd  of  ideal  Shorthorns — absolutely  true  to  type — was 
ready  for  importation  to  this  country  and  Canada,  when  the  de^ee  of  process  in 
agiriculture  on  this  side  oP  the  Atlantic  enabled  us  to  appreciate  what  the  Shorthorn 
breed  meant  as  a  profitable  investment. 

When  one  studies  the  history  of  Shorthorn  breeding  in  America,  the  name  of 
Frank  Harding,  stands  out  very  prominently.  He  has  become  widely  know^n  as  the 
owner  of  the  matchless  bull,  "Whitehall  Sultan",  and  as  the  breeder  of  ideal  descend- 
ants of  said  animal.  His  herd  of  wisely  selected  Shorthorns  and  the  careful  methods 
he  pursues  has  enabled  him  to  accomplish  most  commendable  results  in  producing 
just  the  right  type  of  Shorthorns.  Robert  Miller  of  Canada  also  established  his  fame 
by  producing,  "Meadow  Kin^',  "Bridal  Bouquet",  and  other  undefeated  champions 
of  the  breed. 

The  names  of  Sir  William  Van  Home,  Bellows,  Hanna,  Carpenter,  Ross,  Stanton, 
Sayer,  Dryden  and  Sir  George  Drummond — as  well  as  of  many  other  enterprising, 
Canadians  and  Americans — are  intimately  associated  with  the  ^reat  work  of  making 
this  superior  race  of  cattle  better  know^n  and  thoroughly  appreciated  by  the  farmers 
of  America.  The  people  of  Canada  and  of  the  United  States  are  beginning  to  realize 
the  importance  of  the  work  bein^  accomplished  by  these  men  and  its  effect  upon  the 
welfare  of  humanity:  their  aim  and  ambition  is  to  carry  on,  in  a  thoroughly  intellig,ent 
manner,  the  results  accomplished  by  past  g,enerations  of  conscientious  farmers  of 
En^and  and  Scotland. 


Page  Twcntij-eiijkl 


heart's  Uelight  G^arm.  &hazy.Nev^york. 


The  Shorthorn  herd  at  Heart's  DeU^ht  Farm  comprises  about  100  carefully 
selected  animals,  which  were  recruited  from  the  most  popular  strains  of  the  breed— 
such  as  the  Augusta,  Missie,  Duchess  of  Gloucester,  Butterfly,  Cruikshank,  Broad- 
hoak,  Victoria  and  Lavender. 

"Meadow  Kin^"  was  for  some  years  at  the  head  of  this  herd.  This  remarkable 
bull  was  never  defeated  in  the  show  rin^.  He  won  first  prize  and  Grand  Champion 
prize  at  Toronto  in  1910  and  1911;  was  also  winner  of  the  $500.00  cash  prize  and 
Gold  Medal  in  1911  as  the  best  Shorthorn  at  the  Toronto  International  Exposition. 
The    offspring   of  this   bull    ^ive   every   evidence    of    developing    into    first    prize 


We  have  lately  purchased  the  celebrated  bull,  'TOND  MEMORY,"  from  Mr. 
Frank  Harding.  This  bull  was  sired  by  "WHITEHALL  SULTAN",  and  is  conceded  to 
be  the  equal  of  his  world-renowned  ancestor  in  style,  conformation,  prepotency  and 
in  breeding,  absolutely  true  to  type.  "FOND  MEMORY"  was  first  in  his  class  at  the 
Chicago  International  in  1909.  Mr.  Harding's  recent  sale  of  the  Calves  of  "FOND 
Memory"  proved  conclusively  that  this  bull  will  soon  be  generally  acknowledged  as 
the  worthy  successor  of  his  peerless  sire,  "WHITEHALL  SULTAN",  in  capacity  to 
surely  reproduce  his  remarkable  qualities. 

Our  Shorthorns  are  not  pampered,  but  are  raised  under  conditions  which  insure 
a  strong  constitution,  well  proportioned  outlines  and  frame;  also  ^ood  coats  of  hair. 
To  obtain  the  g,reatest  development  possible  they  are  well  fed  from  calf-hood  with 
a  g,enerous  ration  in  winter  of  roots,  alfalfa,  clover  hay  and  a  sparing  portion  of  ^ain. 
In  summer  they  have  the  freedom  of  tame  ^rass  pastures. 

Contemplation  of  these  splendid  examples  of  the  life  work  of  the  world's  greatest 
breeders  of  Shorthorns  arouses  the  hope  that  some  day  the  human  race  will  come  to 
a  fuU  realization  of  the  possibilities  o£  intelligent  eugenics.

Origin  and  Development 


FOR  a  period  of  over  two  thousand  years  the  ancestral  foundation  of  the  present 
day  Holstein-Friesian  cattle  was  in  process  of  development.  The  ancient 
Friesians  were  possessed  of  the  sturdy  thrift  and  plodding  patience  which  their 
descendants  also  manifest,  and  these  sterling  qualities  made  it  possible  for  the  people 
of  Holland  to  originate  and  develop  the  g,reatest  strain  of  milch  cows  in  existence. 

The  farmers  of  Holland  have  always  avoided  inbreeding,  consequendy  the 
Holstein  cow  has  more  stamina  and  prepotency  than  any  other  dairy  animal.  The 
efforts  put  forth  by  the  Dutch  during  so  many  centuries  to  constantly  improve  the 
capacity  of  their  dairy  herds  in  milk  production,  represent  a  |,reat  contribution  to 
the  wealth  and  progress  of  America  by  reason  of  the  liberal  importation  of  the  best 
strains  of  these  cattle  to  the  United  States  and  the  consequent  upbuilding  of  our 
Holstein  herds. 


i^eart's 'Delight  Ofurm.  Qhaxy.New'^rk. 


Our  farmers  have  mucK  to  emulate  in  the  example  set  by  the  dairymen  of 
Holland  and  ere  lon^  it  may  transpire  that  dairy  cattle  in  this  country  will  be  prop- 
erly housed  during  winter  months  in  clean,  well  ventilated  and  sunny  stables,  and 
that  through  a  logical  system  of  cooperation  on  the  part  of  state  and  nation,  proper 
facilities  for  producing  pure  milk  may  be  provided.  The  people  must  understand 
that  only  through  fairness  and  enlightenment  in  dealing  with  this  industry  may 
we  hope  to  have  pure  and  wholesome  milk  to  feed  to  the  babies. 

The  first  recorded  importation  of  these  cattle  to  America  was  made  by  the 
Holland  Land  Company  in  1795.  During  the  past  twenty-five  years  the  popularity 
of  the  breed  has  rapidly  increased  and  well  informed  farmers  are  be^innin^  to 
realize  that  it  is  a  w^aste  of  time  and  opportunity  to  keep  other  types  of  dairy  cows. 

Heart's  Delight  Farm  Holstein-Friesian  cattle  are  descendants  of  the  best  strains 
of  Pontiac,  Korndyke  and  Prilly  blood  to  be  found  in  this  country,  and  the  up- 
building of  our  herd  is  conducted  in  a  thoroug,h  and  conscientious  manner.  Some 
of  our  foundation  stock  was  purchased  from  Stevens  Brothers  of  Liverpool,  New 
York,  who  are  widely  known  as  breeders  of  many  of  the  finest  Holsteins  ever 
produced.  The  ancestral  line  of  our  herd  bull  traces  back  throug,h  many  g,enerations 
of  the  most  popular  and  highest  producing  strains  of  Holsteins  in  the  United  States.

Origin  and  "Development 


IN  Asia,  Africa  and  Europe,  also  in  North  and  SoutK 
America,  many  different  species  of  wild  sKeep 
existed  lon^  before  history  recorded  any  distinctive 
facts  relative  to  this  nohle  hreed  of  animals,  which  were 
domesticated  many  centuries  a^o,  and  have  figured  very 
largely  in  human  activities  from  time  immemorial. 

The    Spaniards    trou^t    sheep    to    North  America 
ahout  the  year  1500  and  they  w^ere  introduced  into  the  En^ish 
Colony  of  Jamestown,  Virginia,  in  1609. 

George  Washington,  first  President  of  these  United  States,  was  a  successful 
farmer  and  competent  man  of  business.  He  appreciated  the  tremendous  possibilities 
of  sheep  as  a  national  asset.  Since  his  time  the  sheep  industry  has  suffered  many 
reverses,  some  of  the  worst  of  -which  may  be  justly  attributed  to  "tariff  tinkering". 
The  importance  of  establishing  and  maintaining  a  thoroughly  patriotic,  consistent, 
intelligent  and  conservative  policy  in  managing  the  business  affairs  of  this  country 
cannot  be  overestimated.  Every  fanner,  business  man  and  patriotic  citizen  should 
devote  his  best  thought  and  effort  to  this  subject  in  order  that  our  form  of  govern- 
ment may  continue  to  exist. 

Dorset  sheep  w^ere  developed  in  the  Counties  of  Dorset  and  Somerset,  England 
and  were  first  brought  to  America  in  1885  by  E.  Stanford  of  Markham,  Ontario. 
For  over  two  hundred  years  this  remarkable  breed  has  produced  autumn  and 
winter  lambs. 

Our  foundation  flock  of  Dorsets  were  procured  in  England  from  the  following 
famous  breeders:  W.  R.  Rower,  E.  A.  Hambro  and  Frank  J.  Merson,  therefore  our 


SKeart's  "Delight  Uarm.  Qhazy.Newyork. 


sheep  represent  tKe  conscientious  and  intelligent  effort  of  tKese  enterprising  farmers, 
who  devoted  their  lives  to  the  up-building  of  Dorsets.  Through  this  foundation  our 
system  has  produced  remarkable  results,  and  our  flock  is  now  recognized  as  the  finest 
in  America.  The  demand  for  our  Dorset  lambs  for  breeding  purposes  far  exceeds 
our  capacity  to  supply  them. 

Southdown  sheep  derive  their  name  from  a  ran^e  of  hills  located  in  the  southern 
part  of  the  Counties  of  Kent,  Sussex,  Hampshire  and  Dorset,  upon  which  they 
originally  pastured. 

The  improvement  of  Southdowns  be^an  about  1776.  The  two  most  noted  of 
the  early  breeders  of  these  sheep  were  John  EUman  of  Glynde,  in  Sussex,  and  Jonas 
Webb  of  Brabraham,  Cambridgeshire,  England.  John  Ellman  be^an  his  ^reat  work 
of  improvement  about  1780,  and  he  left  this  beautiful  breed  of  sheep  almost  as 
perfect  as  it  is  to-day. 

Southdowns  were  imported  into  America  from  England  about  1800.  Dr.  Rose 
of  Fayette,  Seneca  County,  New  York,  possessed  a  small  flock  as  early  as  1803. 
These  animals  breed  remarkably  true  to  type  and  are  ideal  mutton  sheep. 

Our  Southdown  foundation  flock  was  very  carefuUy  selected  from  the  finest 
flocks  of  the  world's  greatest  breeders,  and  the  descendants  of  these  splendid  sheep 
are  a  credit  to  the  best  traditions  of  the  breed.

Origin  and  Development 


IT  is  evident  that  before  the  dawn  of  history,  swine  existed  in  a  wild  condition  in 
Europe,  Asia  and  Africa,  and  the  improvement  of  these  wild  ancestors  of  modern 
swine  be^an  at  an  early  period;  in  fact,  the  semi-barbarous  tribes  of  Asia  realized 
the  value  of  these  animals  many  centuries  a^o. 

Zoologiists  divide  the  principal  species  of  swine  as  follow:  True  swine,  including 
the  wild  ho^  of  Europe,  Asia  and  Africa;  the  Babirussa,  found  in  East  Indian  Islands; 
the  Papuan  hog,  of  New  Guinea  and  the  Wood  swine  of  South  Africa. 

Swine  may  be  reared  successfully  in  any  country  outside  of  the  Arctic  Circle. 
Possessed  of  a  strong  appetite,  they  utilize  a  larg,e  amount  of  food  which  would 
otherwise  ^o  to  waste.  Tl\ey  are  more  prolific  than  any  other  domestic  quadruped 
except  the  rabbit,  and  are  of  tremendous  value  to  the  human  race  on  account  of  the 
food  they  furnish. 

Althoug,h  the  hog,  is  older  than  history,  the  past  century  marks  the  period  oi 
real  advance  in  sw^ine  husbandry.  The  various  breeds  known  in  America  trace  back 
to  those  of  Great  Britain,  which  were  chiefly  improved  by  crossing  with  Chinese  ho^. 


SfCeart's  ^Delight  Dxirm ,  Qhazy.Newyor-k. 


The  magnitude  of  tKe  swine  industry  in  America  may  be  appreciated  by  referring 
to  the  records  of  the  various  stock  yards  of  the  country.  Chicago  Stock  Yards  alone 
received  in  1913  ho^  amounting  in  value  to  $146,000,000.00.  The  total  estimated 
number  of  ho^  in  the  world  in  1913  was  about  one  hundred  and  fifty  million,  worth 
at  an  average  price  of  $20.00  each— $3,000,000,000.00. 

Chester  WKite  swine  originated  about  1815  in  Chester  County,  Pennsylvania, 
and  for  fifty  years  thereafter  the  Quaker  farmers  of  that  re^on  made  remarkable 
improvement  in  the  breed  through  careful  selection  and  mating.  This  type  of  ho^ 
is  noted  for  its  quiet  disposition,  ^ood  size,  splendid  conformation,  ^eat  prepotency 
and  the  ability  to  mature  quickly. 

The  Chester  White  swine  of  Heart's  Delight  Farm  represent  the  most  desirable 
qualities  obtainable.  Our  foundation  herd  of  sows  w^as  selected  with  utmost  care, 
and  our  herd  boar,  "Sunny  Jim",  has  contributed  greatly  to  the  up-building  and  fame 
of  the  breed.  His  style,  stamina  and  ability  to  breed  true  to  type  is  remarkable. 
This  ^reat  sire  has  more  registered  pi^  to  his  credit  than  any  other  Chester  White 
boar  in  America. 

Heart's  Delight  Farm  Lar^e  Yorkshire  swine  are  also  justly  noted  .for  quality. 
We  spared  no  effort  nor  expense  in  securing  the  finest  examples  of  this  ^eat  breed 
of  swine  when  our  herd  was  established.  Our  brood  sows  are  splendid  in  con- 
formation, and  produce  very  lar^e  litters  of  strong,  well-formed  pi^.  Our  herd 
boars  represent  the  best  and  most  desirable  strains  obtainable,  are  remarkably  pre- 
potent, and  breed  absolutely  true  to  type. 

The  demand  for  these  pi^  has  become  widespread;  we  select  only  the  choicest 
specimens  for  sale  as  breeding  animals,  and  are  now  shipping  larg,e  numbers  of 
Chester  White  and  Yorkshire  swine  to  the  foremost  agricultural  colle|,es  and  enter- 
prising farmers  of  America,  as  well  as  to  foreign  countries.

Origin  and  Development 


TT  is  generally  conceded  that  "Gallus 


Bankiva",  the  wild  jungle  fowl  of 

India,  is  the  ancestor  of  the  modern  hen. 

The  domestication  of  this  fowl  dates 

from  remote  antiquity.    Poultry  spread 

--  -  '•         eastward  and  northward  from  India 

and  reached  China  ahout  fourteen  hun- 
dred years  before  the  Christian  era.     The  first  domestic  fow^ls  imported 
to  America  were  Games  and  Leghorns. 

Heart's  Delight  Farm  poultry  largely  consists  of  White  Leghorns. 
They  mature  quickly,  are  prolific  layers,  and  our  poultry  plant  now  contains 
many  thousands  of  these  beautiful  birds  which  are  absolutely  true  to  type. 

Our  system  of  managing  poultry  has  enabled  us  to  secure  an  active  market  for 
eggs  and  broilers,  which  are  disposed  of  through  the  best  clubs,  hotels,  cafes  and 
fancy  grocers. 

The  turkeys  of  the  present  day  are  descended  from  the  native  wild  turkeys 
which  formerly  existed  in  large  numbers  from  the  Gulf  of  Mexico  to  Canada.  The 
color  of  this  type  is  black,  shaded  with  a  rich  bronze,  copper  and  gold.  From  this 
wild  original,  crossed  with  the  domestic  black  turkey  brought  by  the  early  settlers 
from  England,  was  created  the  well-known  species  of  bronze  turkeys. 

The  climate  and  conditions  at  Heart's  Delight  Farm  permit  the  production  of  a 
very  superior  strain  of  these  birds,  which  are  noted  for  their  excellent  flavor  and 
tenderness  and  are  shipped  to  all  parts  of  the  United  States. 

Heart's  Delight  Farm  pigeons,  in  common  with  numerous  varieties  of  birds,  so 
designated,  are  descended  from  the  Blue  Rock  Pigeon  of  Europe  (the  Biset  of  the 
French),  a  bird  of  extensive  geographical  range,  being  found  in  nearly  all  parts  of 
the  eastern  henaisphere. 

The  raising  of  Heart's  Delight  Farm  squabs  is  an  important  branch  of  our  poultry 
department.  Our  foundation  breeding  pigeons  were  carefully  selected,  and  as  the 
result  of  judicious  mating  and  crossing,  we  are  producing  squabs  of  excellent  quality 
and  weight,  which  find  a  ready  market.

ever, it  is  obvious  that  common  sense  cannot  be  legislated  into  the  minds  of  people  who 
may  not  have  inherited  it;  likewise  fertility  cannot  be  legislated  into  exhausted  soil. 

Most  farmers  face  a  deficit  at  the  end  of  their  fiscal  year,  but  apparently  are 
not  aware  of  the  fact.  Antiquated  custom  decrees  that  they  shall  sell  their  farm  pro- 
duce at  one-half  of  its  actual  value.  Farmers  rarely  if  ever  consider  the  capital  outlay, 
consisting  largely  of  soil  fertility  which  they  annually  donate  to  the  consumers  of  food, 
and  no  account  is  taken  of  depreciation  of  building,  fences,  implements  and  the  value 
of  the  farmer's  own  time. 


Advancing  years  with  resulting  loss  of  efficiency  is  never  discounted  in  the  price 
the  farmers  ask  for  the  food  they  produce.  In  truth,  the  farmer  and  the  people  w^ho 
subsist  upon  the  fruits  of  his  industry  have  been  conducting  their  business  relations 
upon  a  disastrously  false  economic  basis. 

In  the  meantime,  the  five  year  average  yield  of  wheat  per  acre  in  the  United 
States  has  declined  to  about  thirteen  bushels.  This  rate  of  production  is  ruinous  to 
the  farmers  as  well  as  to  the  consumers.  The  average  crop  of  corn  and  other  ^rain 
per  acre  is  likewise  reduced  as  an  inevitable  result  of  the  common  desire  to  ^et 
something  for  nothing;  therefore  the  land  ^rows  poorer  each  year  and  the  price  of 
food  increases.

To  a  g,reat  extent  our  journalists  and  writers  overlook  tkeir  opportunity  to  edu- 
cate all  of  the  people  as  to  tKe  real  causes  whicK  underlie  the  increase  in  cost  of  food; 
they  needlessly  attack  the  middlemen  who  eke  out  a  difficult  living  trying  to  serve  the 
farmers  and  the  inhabitants  of  our  cities.  Let  us  hope  that  we  shall  not  be  aroused 
too  late  by  the  pinch  of  hunger. 

Farm  management  at  Heart's  Delight  embodies  as  a  central  thought  thorou^ness 
in  every  phase  of  activity.  Hence  the  tillable  land  is  properly  drained  by  the  use 
of  tile,  and  is  then  brought  to  a  condition  of  highest  fertility;  we  plow  deep  and  pre- 
pare the  land  for  seeding  with  utmost  care.  We  constantly  endeavor  to  accomplish 
by  means  of  crop  rotation,  scientific  fertilization  and  thorough  cultivation,  better 
and  still  better  results.  This  system  has  enabled  us  to  produce  five  and  one-half  tons 
of  timothy  hay  per  acre,  six  and  one-half  tons  of  alfalfa  per  acre,  ninety-seven  bushels 
of  oats  per  acre  and  other  crops  in  proportion. 

Our  fields  of  corn,  w^heat,  oats,  rye,  barley,  potatoes,  buckwheat,  alfalfa  and  tim- 
othy are  an  inspiration  and  a  delig,ht  to  the  eye.  When  farmers  generally  inaugurate 
and  practice  thorough  methods  in  all  their  efforts,  the  resulting  increase  in  production 
w^ill  enhance  the  wealth  of  the  nation  to  a  fabulous  extent. 

Our  flocks  and  herds  are  also  brou|,ht  to  the  hig,hest  state  of  excellence  by  the 
use  of  the  best  pure  bred  strains  of  blood  and  by  the  most  careful  selection  of  sires. 
Our  Percheron  and  Belgian  horses.  Shorthorn  and  Holstein  cattle,  Yorkshire  and 
Chester  White  s'wine,  Dorset  and  Southdow^n  sheep  represent  the  best  attainable  re- 
sults of  careful  and  conscientious  breeding. 

Other  produce  of  the  farm,  w^hich  has  won  recognition  on  account  of  quality, 
consists  of  ham,  bacon,  sausage,  butter,  e^s,  winter  lambs,  chickens,  turkeys,  squabs, 
brook  trout,  maple  su|,ar  and  syrup,  Canadian  cantaloupe  and  celery.

Valley  in  which  Heart's  Delight  Farm  is  located !  The 
mountains,  lake,  rivers  and  forests  lend  enchantment 
to  the  farm. 

Samuel  de  Champlain  discovered  in  July,  1609  the 
beautiful  lake  and  valley  which  bear  his  name.  The 
history  of  this  part  of  the  State  of  New  York  is  filled 
with  stirring  deeds.

events  relating  to  the  French  and  Indian  wars,  the  Revo- 
lution and  the  War  of  1812,  impart  romance  and 
thrilling  interest  to  the  valley. 

The  village  of  Chazy  takes  its  name  from  the  Chazy 
River,  named  in  memory  of  Sieur  Chazy,  a  young  French 
nobleman,  who  lost  his  life  near  its  mouth,  in  a  battle 
with  Mohawk  Indians  in  the  year  Ibbfo.  M.  Chazy 
was  a  nephew  of  Marquis  de  Tracy,  Lieutenant-general 
of  Canada,  and  was  Captain  in  the  famous  French 
regiment  of  Carigan-Salieres.  This  regiment  was  the 
first  body  of  regular  troops  sent  to  Canada  from  France.
